He just fired Dan Byslma lol

[KillerKat]

I wouldn't mind Bylsma here tbh. Just need someone else to help manage the goaltending and defense. Idk if I would trust Bylsma in those areas.

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

Byslma would be awesome.

He went 252-117-32, made the playoffs all six years he coached Pittsburgh, and won a Stanley Cup.

Most people don't get fired when they have that much success.

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

Apparently Byslma wants to coach the Florida Panthers...

I wouldn't wish that job on anyone.

I'll take Disco as long as one of  his assistants is a defensive guru.

@penguins: NEWS ALERT: Jason Karmanos has been named #Pens VP of Hockey Operations. He spent 15 seasons with #Canes from '98-13 http://t.co/ZdpHn6Slur

That means it was Peter's idea and decision to fire Jason.

PK is running this team into the ground.
